The Shill is an inventive dark comedy that pairs an imaginative sci-fi premise with sharp wit and thoughtful satire. Greg Mandryk builds an engaging world that cleverly examines themes of survival, complicity, and consumer culture, while balancing absurd humor with moments of genuine tension. A smart, entertaining piece that offers audiences plenty to laugh at while leaving them with something deeper to consider.

Just how far are you willing to sell out to (literally) save your own skin? That's the inspired premise behind this piece, which skewers the everything-for-a-buck ethos of showbiz against a ridiculous sci-fi background. Tons of fun and well worth a look.

Cleverly written, The Shill illustrates ethics in action. Should one save their own skin? Or sacrifice for the good of many? Greg Mandryk’s wild humor never disappoints. A spectacularly warped piece and 100% worth a read. Hooray!
